First sold-out shows and VIP parties for Simple Plan’s U.S. tour!

Whether it’s because of the commotion Simple Plan’s current acoustic promo tour is causing, or just because they haven’t played in the U.S. for so long, it’s starting to get pretty clear that the American Simple Plan fans missed the band quite a lot and still are very loyal to them. It took only 2 hours for the show in West Hollywood, CA to sell out, after the tickets went on sale this Friday morning. Simple Plan will be heading out on the tour across the U.S. in October with Story Untold and Hit The Lights – you can check out the list and info on all the upcoming Simple Plan tourdates in this section.

And it’s not just the tickets to the U.S. shows that are selling well – it’s also the VIP tickets to the so-called “pizza parties”, which include many perks, such as pizza and photos with the members of the band, early access to merch etc. Within a day, the pizza parties (that are open to up to 40 fans on each date) in New York, Cleveland and Chicago are already sold-out and according to Chuck, the remaining VIP tickets are selling very fast. If you’re still thinking about attending a VIP party in the U.S., make sure to act fast, as the tickets for your city may be gone soon too. More info on all the upcoming VIP pizza parties can be found here.

This interest in Simple Plan shows in the U.S. is of course a big confidence boost for Simple Plan and it may have positive impact on the future tour announcements and possibly a part two to the U.S. tour.

Can/U.S. tour announcement confirmed for Monday with a new photoshoot + possible opening band

Yesterday we brought the news that Simple Plan would be announcing their upcoming tour across Canada and the U.S. next week and today we finally have the confirmation that the tour announcement is in fact coming on Monday already!

Both Jeff and Simple Plan announced so on their Instagram and while Simple Plan are still playing guessing games with the fans what the announcement could be, Jeff is already happily posting about the fact that it’s a tour announcement regarding the U.S. and Canada. But at least Simple Plan accompanied the announcement of the Monday announcement with a cool new black & white photoshoot from Europe, taken by Chady. Check it out:

There may be something more than just tourdates to the Monday announcement, though. It’s fair to assume that along with that the band will also announce the opening band for this tour. And here’s where some simple maths and a little detective work come in: from the band’s behavior on social media in the past few days, where they’ve been paying a lot of attention to the Canadian band Story Untold (formerly known as Amasic), lead by singer Janick Thibault, it’s highly probable that their could be Simple Plan’s new opening band for this tour. Coincidentally, Story Untold also have a “huge tour announcement” for their fans coming up this Monday – and Simple Plan’s official Twitter have favorited their tweet announcing this. Let’s see what the official confirmation on Monday brings!
